This eight-hour course (broken up into two four hour sessions with breaks, so plan to be here 4.5-5 hours both days) from the National Council of Behavioral Health is aimed at destigmatizing mental health and substance use challenges and providing information to community members that empowers them to help folks in crisis.

Please note that only individuals who are 18+ will be able to be certified, but we encourage people of all ages to register, attend, participate, and learn this valuable information! Even if you're a minor, you'll still receive the manual.

(The fee is to cover the guidebooks, which all participants receive, and cost $17. Most places that offer this course charge $60-105 per participant. We strive to keep this important information accessible. Ingry is donating her time, and Marrow is donating the use of our space. Any additional funding raised will be put toward future programming, so we can continue to never turn anyone away for lack of funds.)

The facilitator, Ingry, will also hang around afterwards if anyone wants to discuss a particular topic in-depth or bring up something that wasn't covered. She offered this course at Marrow in March and everyone found it to be super informative. Ingry also teaches this course in a relatively uniquely inclusive and open-minded way.

*PRE-REGISTRATION required for this event.Please note that you must attend the entirety of both sessions to be certified.$20 suggested (to cover cost of your manual), no one will be turned away for lack of funds.
